Prepare two compatible compositions
Use similar camera positions, perspective and subjects. For an interior transformation, keep walls and windows aligned while changing furniture. Large viewpoint differences make a clean transition harder.
Describe the bridge between the images
Tell the model how to move from the opening toward the ending: furniture gradually appears and settles, with a fixed camera and consistent daylight. Two inputs alone do not explain the intended action.
Inspect the middle as well as the endpoints
Watch for warped geometry, floating objects and sudden changes. The model can reinterpret both inputs; it is not simply replaying them pixel for pixel. Exact intermediate and final frames are not guaranteed.
Split difficult transitions
If the change is too large, create smaller transitions with compatible reference frames and edit the shots together. The public interface does not offer one-click video extension or a precise motion-path editor.
Settings and credit budget
Choose 5, 10 or 15 seconds. Text tasks cost 6 credits; image and two-frame tasks cost 8. New Google accounts receive a one-time 60-credit grant valid for 30 days. Landscape output is 896 × 512 and portrait output is 512 × 896 at 24 fps. Each account can have one active task. Wait for a confirmed result instead of repeatedly submitting.
A prompt to start with
The person gently blinks and gives a small natural smile, subtle breathing, a light breeze moves a few strands of hair, head mostly still, fixed camera, one continuous shot.
Use this as a starting point, then adjust one action or camera instruction at a time. It is a prompt example, not a guarantee of a specific result.
